Seat: get it redone, haven't done mine yet, but I think it would be a good idea.

Headlight: HID is an upgrade, FZR headlight is better, allegedly, FZR headlight with HID would be best I guess.

Clutch: You can fit aftermarket adjustable levers from the R6, brake lever matches straight up with the TRX master cylinder, no modifiction needed, you will need to replace the clutch perch with an R6 unit.

Congratulations on having exceptional taste.

nice one
the clutch is realy keen nearly caught me out a few times especialy at junctions with a slope :shock: but the seat has to be dealt
with so i will do a bit of searching cheers.............
well sorted the clutch out the carbs needed servicing and balancing #-o still needs doing with gauges but shes running smooth now, was lumpy at low revs ect being new to a twin 850 i thought thats how they were, shes a ridable bike now.
PS........ cycling shorts work a treat :P
